[DeTomaso] Bad news

[Mike & Elizabeth Thomas]

I too had a distinct privilege a few years ago at the Texas Rally when I
drove Tom around the day we visited the Space Center and Buoyancy Lab.  We
had a great conversation about his lamentations on the decline and fall of
the great design houses of Italy.

An icon in the world of automotive design.
May your lines be ever resolved and your proportions perfect from every
angle.  Rest in peace.

Hello all, 

I could not and did not want to believe two other mails that Tom has really
died till I got this mail from Robert Cumberford.
Such a good man should have gone on forever.
Tom, I will miss you.

more chemotherapy treatment, and was feeling better.
